Let us forget of the structure for a while and concentrate on the Oxford coma. Why are you there? Why do they exist? Did we really needed another type of punctuation? Was it so hard to just make a list?

I for once am glad they appeared. It gives time another purpose. Of enhancing that long lasting feeling of being close but still yearning so dearly.

It's that second plus a microsecond more. The time when you hug someone you love and still don't want to let go. When you glance at that person and you wonder why you cannot stop.

That little bit more amount of time we would all ask of this cruel and wonderful universe to give us at last. That time you called and didn't want to hang up. When you told me and I empathised, "we shouldn't be grownups"

Ever wondered why there's an obviously missing Oxford coma between "Space and her". Well I didn't realise until now. But let's make an story for it. Since I would like to think that for a while, my space was her and nothing more in between.

There, short and pretty. An explanation you could all tell to anyone who might want to read this. Now back to our scheduled sort of info. Don't go anywhere, we'll be back in a bit.
